Good to know
Paint questions, answered
Quick answers from our counter staff.
Can you paint leather with Angelus paint?
Yes. Angelus paint is a water-based acrylic made for leather shoes, bags and furniture. Take off the factory finish first with 3 to 5 passes of Leather Preparer & Deglazer, then paint in thin coats.
How many coats does it take, and how long does it dry?
3 to 5 thin coats give full coverage, and fewer work for line and detail work. Let each coat dry 15 to 30 minutes, then wait at least 24 hours before the paint bends or flexes.
How far does a 1 oz. bottle go?
About 2 to 3 pairs of shoes per 1 oz. bottle for a full repaint. Detail work uses much less.
Does it work on canvas, denim and fabric?
Yes. Clean the fabric first so no oils or dirt are left. Mix in 2-Soft to keep painted fabric soft and more laundrable, and heat set it when you use 2-Soft.
Do I need to seal it?
It's optional, and it helps. A layer or two of 4-Coat adds protection and sets the sheen: Flat, Matte, Satin or High Gloss.
What if I make a mistake?
You can always adjust. Dried paint comes off with Deglazer, or you can simply paint over it.
Magical experience! Nice to have colors I can use right out of the bottle or custom mix for the perfect shade.
great stuff
Easy to use, I had to buy a bunch to get the right match. Finally got it with a mix of three of them.
Worked perfectly. Blended in with leather color and touch up is invisible.
Great products. Fast shipping. A+
This paint glides on beautifully on my old burgandy leather couch. I mixed it 1:1 with cream and the color is exactly what I am looking for. I also had great guidance from the Angelus team! Excellent product and service!
Beautiful color...so buttery and creamy looking...it makes me hungry🥰
Excellent product.
We have a 20 year old la-z-boy recliner that showed wear on seat , head and arm rests.My wife wanted to buy a new recliner, and they are expensive. I researched Angelus acrylic leather paints and we decided on play in sand. I prepared surface with acetone, cleaned with 70% alcohol, and sanded surface crack on head rest. I applied 3 thin coats and 5 coats on seat, head and arm rests. I probably could have gotten by with less coats, but I wanted lasting results. The results were OUTSTANDING, and I didn’t have to buy a new recliner. Ihighly recommend Angelus leather paint. R/Joe
The paint came pretty fast as well
Nice color
I love it keep up the good work
It was the perfect color. Exactly as the picture shows. This site never disappoints!
Got this paint hoping for a warm sandy tan color and that's exactly what I got. Good on its own or mixing with other colors to get the exact shade I want
It is such a great color! Glad it worked out for you.
My experince using Angelus Paint was amazing, the paint leaves a nice finish and mixes well with other colors.
The paint arrived on time and was great. It helped to turn my project into a work of art.
Everything that I have purchased to get my business going have been more than excellent this has to be the best brand out there
My ordered paint arrived and 2 bottles had leaked everywhere! I contacted Maria in Customer Services and she got straight on it and the replacements arrived in a couple of days…excellent service. I have used a little of the paint recently and it’s covering extremely well and the colour is perfect.!
Mixed both color together, came out perfect, would differently buy again, would give this product 10/10
Love this color and very useful.
Always good paint from Angelus direct hoping to get sponsored someday
Perfect everytime
Paints were great and went well on my shoes :)
My overall experience with angelus paint was out of this world ! I already love it And can’t get enough of it. Thank you so much!
Love it! Everything worked smoothly
Very very great product
I had seen pictures on the internet of sofas restored to an amazing level but approached the restoration of my sofa as a relatively inexpensive experiment, hoping to bring mine back after 5 years with a houseful of post college kids to the point of being passable to have at our cottage. If it didn't work, I wasn't out that much money and it would just have to be thrown - the destiny we thought was inevitable when we took it home after its time away. It had rips and cracks and a lot of the finish worn off the seat, though the rest of the sofa was in great condition. Fixing the rips and filling the cracks was relatively easy but I figured the paint would look very different than the original leather finish. I was very wrong. The paint went on easily and seems to adhere really well and it looks great. No one would guess that it isn't original. While I can't attest to how it stands up to months or years of wear and tear, I can tell you that I accidently left a small drop of paint on the surface that I did not notice until the next day. There was no rubbing or scraping that drop off. I had to resort to sanding it down enough so it wasn't noticeable - my evidence that this stuff sticks and has real staying power. I am very pleased!!
Good product overall
Got everything exactly when I needed it and was supposed to... I’m happy with my products
Satisfied and as expected from seeing videos online. Truly recommended.
I use this on my dog show leads. So far it's held up great.
